Blair plans state funeral for Thatcher

The above just has to be my pick of the weekend. After a few days in the Cesspit called Washington, anyone would need a holiday, but surely the prime Preacher is taking far too many these days. Currently languishing in post-Berlusconi Italy, he's taken time out to aquaint himself with the new Prime Minister and also his Papalness - urgently seeking sainthood perhaps? The above story is however the most audacious of all. Blair, it seems, is planning a big state funeral for his heroine, Margaret Thatcher. It would be the only such event since the death of Winston Churchill, but there's one problem - the Iron Lady is still alive!

In 1981, two peace protesters set up camp outside the White House and became an institution, as yet undisturbed by the advent of Bush and the facist state. They are still there, now celebrating their 25th anniversary.

The Ape Emporer has embarked on a consultancy excercise over Iran policy. He may even be looking to dissenters for help, but taking the ticket surely is his appointing an "expert" consultant who is a known Iranian news hoaxer!

In comics, Batwoman returns. She is now a lesbian! There also now seems to be a surge in anti-war titles.

The "Daily Prescott" is not published today.

Later.
